Erich Andreas Online Guitar Lessons

Erich Andreas

My name is Erich Andreas, AKA “Your Guitar Sage." I have been playing and teaching guitar for over 30 years and absolutely LOVE my "job". One of the most exciting things for me is getting my guitar knowledge into the heads and hands of my students.

As a player/teacher in Nashville, Tennessee, I have been exposed to some of the world's best players in REAL world scenarios. From this experience, my musical education and my passion for music I pride myself in simplifying otherwise difficult concepts. It thrills me to "enlighten" musicians in areas they thought were not attainable!

I started teaching guitar in high school to my buddies who didn't understand music theory and/or how to get past certain musical "humps". Several decades, 100s of students and 1000s of lessons later, I have authored several best-selling books about music/guitar, have hundreds of thousands of YouTube subscribers for my guitar lessons and have over 42,000,000 views. I have also been featured in the Wall Street Journal for my teaching style and am now gratefully HERE (TrueFire), after winning TrueFire's Next Top Guitar Instructor.

I am honored to be a part of the TrueFire team and am honored that you might allow me to show you a thing or two on the guitar. I have a few mottos that have helped me over the years with my journey on the guitar:

1. You can learn guitar from just about anybody, EVEN someone who is not as experienced as you. If your ears and eyes are open, you WILL learn SOMETHING.

2. Practice trumps talent any day. ALL the greats practiced to show themselves approved. NO great guitarist was born that way. Practice deliberately and practice often!

3. You need TWO things to excel as a player: 1. Learning resources and 2. Tenacious practicing. Hopefully I can help you with the resources part!

"He who gives his life away will find it!"

Excited!

As a fifty+ guy who played as a kid, getting back into it is tough. I have heard about the NNS but never really had a good musical background. Erich makes it super easy. So easy I am definitely going to be sign up (upgrading) for full access.. Erich: Mathew 16:25

Wonderful player

Erich makes such amazing videos. I am always excited to start watching a new one! He helps me every day with figuring out my guitar. Watching a new video encourages me to continue playing. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful teacher especially one who is so well versed and passionate about guitar. You can really tell when someone loves what they are doing.

Great Instructor

Erich Andreas is, quite possibly, one of the best instructors you can find online. His approach to guitar allows for you to to easily follow along with him in any of his course content. He breaks it down to an easy to understand level and provides additional material outside of his video lessons to further help you get a firm grasp on what is being taught. Not only does he speak on the technical side of guitar playing, but also how your mind and attitude toward your practice and playing affect your progression through his coursework and on your journey to wherever you want your guitar playing to take you. Whether you are a new player or a seasoned veteran, you can bet that you will learn something new from him.

Guitar Sage

To make good use of my quarantine, I decided to be productive and learn guitar. I found Truefire and their YouTube channel extremely helpful with their lessons and tutors being so helpful, clear, articulate and easy to follow. I eventually showed progress and learnt to incorporate new concepts, rhythms, grooves in my own playin. Looking forward for more lessons in the future.
